Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Bots and spammers can evade detection through various means e.g. adjusting the intervals of their messages. But one of their common behaviour is that they often send their messages in public channels. We can leverage this weakness by trapping them in a dedicated channel.
Such feature is already present in Osu! PH Discord server.
Describe the solution you'd like
Admin/mods to setup a channel (let's call this #do-not-talk-here) warning human users that they should not send a message there lest they be banned.
Progphil bot to watch the specified channel
sample could be /trap do-not-talk-here
When a non-admin or non-mod user sends a message in this channel, they'll be banned
for reconsideration: maybe just softbanned?
Their message(s) should be automatically deleted
Describe alternatives you've considered
I've checked the bots we have (Dyno and Carl) and they do not have such feature.
There's a similar bot but this is unverified. Security and functionality may be an issue
Additional context
Nothing else to add. We just hate spammers.
